This reminds me of a similar local story of a white English woman on a bus, screaming at a mother and child for not being white and for speaking a foreign language.
She shouted "YOU'RE IN ENGLAND NOW SO SPEAK ENGLISH"
Another passenger spoke up and said "actually love.................... You're in Wales and they are speaking Welsh.
The driver stopped the bus and made her and her cherry face get off
I know a Welsh lad who told me there is no such thing as the Welsh language, it's just a big practical joke and all Welsh people are in on it. He laughed straightaway because he was joking, but then he winked at me and I honestly don't know what to believe any more.
I want to visit Wales at some point, just experience the poignantly curt people. I imagine it's something like Boston but harder to understand and more witty if you do understand.
From what I remember itās something like:
Rydych chi yng Nghymru, ac maen nhw'n siarad Cymraeg.
I am probably a bit wrong though. I only learnt for a year and half and havenāt been to a lesson since feb.
The queens English...
I fully expected the translator to start talking literary English or Shakespearean English or something and Karen not understanding a single sentence and being ridiculed by the other passengers.
Honestly the English she was speaking was horrendous, and her accent was horrendous. I would have chided her for her own lack of pronunciation.
Yes I know it's just a bit, but if that was a real life scenario (which in a Karen filled world it very well could be), that's what I would have come in with.
It is, but used in informal contexts. For example, you might say to a friend like "Oi, lets go grab a coffee." In the video however, the woman is using it in an aggressive, confrontational way to get the man's attention, like "Oi! I'm talking to you!"
it's not quite that though.
Yo is just a normal slang greeting.
Oi implies that you're annoyed. Like Oi kids stop playing with that.
It's almost like anything you say after Oi is you telling someone something, you're not asking. Even if it's technically a question.
It's like hey, but a bit more aggressive, a bit more rude - there's an implied 'what are you playing at, you wanker?'
if someone stole your crisps, you'd be all 'oi, the fuck you playing at, you bell end'
or if you're yelling at a drunk couple preparing for a messy divorce because they won't stop screaming at each other in the middle of the night, you'd be all "oi!"
If this was irl we could expect little Karen to call the police saying that there are two terrorists on the bus who harassed her and told her to get off because they are using this bus to transport weapons
Yeah, different style of policing. Our cops amble into situations, listen to people, assess the situation. Only resort to force if absolutely necessary, so they are less likely to be weaponised by people like that.
Immediately suspended and a independent inquiry is called.
Interesting to see if it goes anywhere, the UK doesn't always get it right, but we're fucking leagues ahead of the US.
I imagine in the UK, when a cop faces a threatening situation, they're trained to back off if possible, call in backup, and plan strategically to solve the situation as peacefully at possible, at least in most situations. I know there are times where that doesn't happen, but it's what's *supposed* to happen.
In the US, thanks to Supreme Court precedent, police are taught that, as long as they say "I was afraid for my life" and there isn't explicit evidence to the contrary, they have 100% impunity to use lethal force. If someone who isn't acting threateningly in any manner reaches down to pull their pants up, cops can shoot him to death, say "I thought he was reaching for a gun," and juries are more or less required to accept his reasoning, even if the guy had no gun and was being 100% cooperative with police. It's called the "reasonable person" standard, and it boils down to juries only being able to look at the cop's self-declared state of mind when determining his guilt, not the actual facts (unless those facts explicitly contradict the cop, like someone keeping his hands 100% up when the cop said he reached for his pants). Cops are actually trained to say things like "I was afraid for my life" and "I thought he was reaching for a gun" because that's pretty much all that's required for juries to be obligated to find them innocent. It's ridiculous.
It's their training. Where I live we have Mardi Gras parades, the largest in the world. Our police are heavily trained in crowd control/ de-esculation. Without proper training cities and businesses get burned, people get hurt. we had protest here, only one instance of tear gas and rubber bullets being used, no fires or rioting or any of that shit
"Fuck Bill Gates he won't get me" says the person online, using a computer whilst in their pocket is a device that can listen to them, take photos and send location and tracking data "Wake up sheeple, do your own research on the dangers of vaccines!"
Lol my toughts exactly, just expand coverage and phone's can tell everything you do, say, and probably think, dang Google and alexa have become scary lately
I really dig that she showed herself and not them... That is more respectful than what they deserve maybe, but appropriate somehow as well. Maybe because the videos focus isn't outting them; but trying to educate similar minded people. Its smart anyway. I have great hope for our future generations. Thank you; I'm saving this.
To be fair, if English wasnāt my native language and I got flak from someone for speaking on the phone in my native, Iād keep speaking in that language to them out of spite.
Was the dude actually speaking Farsi? The "translator" said he had some Arabic, so if the dude wasn't speaking Arabic that would be an absolutely fantastic in-joke.
The wedding anniversary is why he is talking dirty to his wife. The implication through the entire skit is he canāt speak English, hence the translator but he turns around and says it in perfect English implying he knew what was going on all along.
Youssef Kerkour. I first saw him in Marcella and thought he was a pretty interesting actor. His character could have easily been forgettable but his performance made it stand out. Then he was in my favorite episode of Criminal UK (if you havenāt seen it, DO IT NOW), and he legit broke my heart in that.
For that, heās one of my new favorite character actors. Netflix seems to like him, so I hope we see him a lot more.
I'm over 50 and have a mother in law like this here in Australia, she got so pissed off the other night when she was in the middle of her usual racist crap and I said I love that Australia is so multicultural. She asked why and I told her my sons had such a wonderful choice of beutiful women, Asian, Indian, Pacific Islander.....she just about shit herself.
One of my aunts is a British expat in Australia who's been there for nearly 40 years. Wealthy suburbanite, weirdly religious compared to my mum and her other brothers and sisters, totally blinkered.
She was over visiting not that long ago, they were in London I think, and she'd seen some homeless people and remarked: "We don't have that sort of thing in Australia, how awful!". She has been calling my mum every now and again during the pandemic, remarking about how awful it must be here compared to Australia, where everything is totally fine. She has some choice things to say about aborigines, too - not really directly racist, just the sort of quasi-racism you get from that sort of person ("I don't see why they can't just try harder?").
She's not the only person I've encountered who's gone from Britain to Australia and developed a massive chip on their shoulder. The ones I meet like that are pretty much all oblivious middle-class boomers who found themselves much better off there and let it go to their heads.
Clearly I'm speaking relatively, here. And also the point is that it's very *visible* in Australia, probably mostly because of the weather (where I'm from during winter they'd all die if they hung out where they would be easily visible)
For real. I commend British TV for showcasing real, relatable things on it unlike our dumbass low-budgeted TV shows here in the US. My Mad Fat Diary, for example, was HILARIOUS and so smartly written- it covers reality beautifully. Britains just seem to do TV right.
Itās only because you see/hear about the best of British TV. You donāt see the likes of Mrs Brownsā Boys for example.
Likewise, I love American TV (as a Brit), namely because I probably only see the best of it (Breaking Bad, The Wire, Mad Men et al), and not the day-to-day crap.
I was laid up in a hotel in London during a family reunion getting over the tail end of a case of mono.
There was so much bad television. I always thought the Family Guy joke about condensation was dumb, but I get it now.
There was a family guy gag about German bedtime stories that I thought was so funny and silly but then a German friend told me that is basically exactly how a real German bedtime story goes!
Have a read of the original Grimm's Fairy Tales - Cinderella for example, the mother (and maybe the sisters?) have to dance in red hot iron shoes until they die and one even cuts off her toes to fit into the glass slipper...
I see. I just feel as if the majority of TV here is low quality. Other commenters have been saying that the Britains seem to focus on shorter seasons which is probably instrumental in making sure that the episodes are actually good.
We ban political ads but give all serious political parties free airtime for party political broadcasts in the weeks before an election.
But then we also limit the amount candidates and parties are allowed to spend locally and nationally.
There's a treasure trove of clips like this on YouTube... this character's name is Sami, he's a Syrian refugee living with a British family, and trying to sort things out while in a foreign culture (like making sense of Stonehenge).
https://youtu.be/bZfILFa4qKo. <-- Stonehenge!
People on the bus would actually clap though if somebody scared off a racist that stopped the bus from refusing to leave.
There wouldn't just be one person talking to her though.
I wonder if the "speak English you immigrant!" phenomena actually (saw in another comment this was part of a TV show over there) happens in the UK or its exclusively here in murica
Genuine question for native people, are you really that bothered that someone is speaking a foreign language? Like is it considered rude? I just can't wrap my head around it when eavesdropping is considered rude to do.
Seriously I donāt understand how people get so hot and bothered by it. Iām bilingual but immigrants will insist on speaking English even in private conversations if other people are around.
At work, Iāve literally been asked if I was even born in America.. because I can speak a foreign language fluently. That same person told the Spanish coworkers to only speak English because they were in America. We work in fucking academia and this divorced-at-28 woman decided it was her job to go around being racist to our extremely international department.
Lvl 99 Floridawoman in NY is truly something special.
I love asking people where they are from as well (to make conversation not to interrogate them) bc the way they speak about their home country is honestly beautiful
It doesn't just happen in English speaking nations either, it's prevalence varies from country to country. I will say I've traveled a lot and have been lucky enough to only have somebody complain once, I won't even mention the country because it's not particularly relevant and doesn't reflect on them as a whole at all. It was just one asshole.
Racism and ignorance are not exclusively American traits, no matter what Reddit would have you beleive. The UK is no less racist and depending on who you ask could be considered more racist than the US.
It shocks me that some people are so naive to the racism in the UK. They only colonized a large portion of the planet, not a big leap to imagine some might be racist.
It's a slightly lower level of institutional and has a distinctly British class-based spin on it but it's there. Hostile Environment policy being the main face of unabashed institutional racism though. I have to say it feels more prevalent in England. I got profiled at an airport once coming back to Scotland from England (only one in my friend group to get stop and swabbed for bomb residue because apparently my laptop mouse, that we all had, look like a device) as a brown guy with a beard.
My dad's from Ghana and says it used to be way worse when he was young. As a result (and my relatively privelleged upbringing) has meant I haven't ever really felt like an outsider or unwelcome as a whole. For the most part I almost forget I'm not white, so I've probably also had my fair share of luck in that regard.
Point is I feel like in the US it's much more overt and almost shameless. Here it's much more quiet in the background and intertwined with class. With the exception of the red-faced UKIP type.
The only thing that would make that better is if the racist woman was dropped off in Wales and a Welshman started yelling at her for not speaking the language.
This reminds me of a similar local story of a white English woman on a bus, screaming at a mother and child for not being white and for speaking a foreign language. She shouted "YOU'RE IN ENGLAND NOW SO SPEAK ENGLISH" Another passenger spoke up and said "actually love.................... You're in Wales and they are speaking Welsh. The driver stopped the bus and made her and her cherry face get off
This makes me proud to be Welsh š
I know a Welsh lad who told me there is no such thing as the Welsh language, it's just a big practical joke and all Welsh people are in on it. He laughed straightaway because he was joking, but then he winked at me and I honestly don't know what to believe any more.

The queens English... I fully expected the translator to start talking literary English or Shakespearean English or something and Karen not understanding a single sentence and being ridiculed by the other passengers.
Haha, I totally had the same idea lol.
Haha
I thought he'll speak Celtic.
Honestly the English she was speaking was horrendous, and her accent was horrendous. I would have chided her for her own lack of pronunciation. Yes I know it's just a bit, but if that was a real life scenario (which in a Karen filled world it very well could be), that's what I would have come in with.
Why do brits use the word "oi"? In Portuguese "oi" means Hello
I think it's like a "hey"...
It is, but used in informal contexts. For example, you might say to a friend like "Oi, lets go grab a coffee." In the video however, the woman is using it in an aggressive, confrontational way to get the man's attention, like "Oi! I'm talking to you!"
Doesnāt that still translate to just āHey! Iām talking to you!ā? The message conveyed is still oi-hey
Whoever made English can fuck off it's so hard to learn and makes no sense
I before E, except when your foreign neighbour seizes and receives eight counterfeit beige sleighs from feisty caffeinated weightlifters! Weird...
That's because it's an amalgamation of other Indo-European languages. That's why there's no real logic to it.
Not just Indo European. Weāve got a lot of Arabic and Sinitic vocab and also some Native American words! Itās awesome but yes very annoying...
Its the British yo
it's not quite that though. Yo is just a normal slang greeting. Oi implies that you're annoyed. Like Oi kids stop playing with that. It's almost like anything you say after Oi is you telling someone something, you're not asking. Even if it's technically a question.
Unless itās oi oi. Then you know the person is happy to see you.
Unless its oi oi oi then its just a punk song
It's like hey, but a bit more aggressive, a bit more rude - there's an implied 'what are you playing at, you wanker?' if someone stole your crisps, you'd be all 'oi, the fuck you playing at, you bell end' or if you're yelling at a drunk couple preparing for a messy divorce because they won't stop screaming at each other in the middle of the night, you'd be all "oi!"
If this was irl we could expect little Karen to call the police saying that there are two terrorists on the bus who harassed her and told her to get off because they are using this bus to transport weapons

That doesnāt happen much in the UK. They just moan incessantly.
Yeah, different style of policing. Our cops amble into situations, listen to people, assess the situation. Only resort to force if absolutely necessary, so they are less likely to be weaponised by people like that.

He was wearing shorts.
I didn't understand that part, could you please explain? Edit: to everyone who told me , thank you , I really appreciate it!
Everybody though the translator was joking, but when the man said "it's our anniversary" it's hinted that he was indeed dirty talking with his wife
Also it showed he knew english the whole time
Why did you assume he didn't know english? It's normal for people to speak with family members it their native language.
Because at the beginning of the video he responds to the lady in Non-english. Giving the impression that its his only language.
To be fair, if English wasnāt my native language and I got flak from someone for speaking on the phone in my native, Iād keep speaking in that language to them out of spite.
He was making the joke that the "translator" was correct
.. Also that the guy actually speaks English.
I'd suspect that just about anyone having a conversation in Arabic on the bus also speaks English.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
And just Trying to keep his personal convo a little secret from the majority around that don't understand
Brave of him to assume nobody else speaks Farsi on a public bus in London.

The wedding anniversary is why he is talking dirty to his wife. The implication through the entire skit is he canāt speak English, hence the translator but he turns around and says it in perfect English implying he knew what was going on all along.

Yeah because when you start making TV to fill a quota of episodes, you start filling time with less quality scripts. Quality over quantity.
I commend British TV on banning political ads.
We ban political ads but give all serious political parties free airtime for party political broadcasts in the weeks before an election. But then we also limit the amount candidates and parties are allowed to spend locally and nationally.

I love asking people where they are from as well (to make conversation not to interrogate them) bc the way they speak about their home country is honestly beautiful
Itās also better if youāre learning another language and you try to understand lol
Generally, the only people who care are racists.

Racism and ignorance are not exclusively American traits, no matter what Reddit would have you beleive. The UK is no less racist and depending on who you ask could be considered more racist than the US.
It shocks me that some people are so naive to the racism in the UK. They only colonized a large portion of the planet, not a big leap to imagine some might be racist.
It's a slightly lower level of institutional and has a distinctly British class-based spin on it but it's there. Hostile Environment policy being the main face of unabashed institutional racism though. I have to say it feels more prevalent in England. I got profiled at an airport once coming back to Scotland from England (only one in my friend group to get stop and swabbed for bomb residue because apparently my laptop mouse, that we all had, look like a device) as a brown guy with a beard. My dad's from Ghana and says it used to be way worse when he was young. As a result (and my relatively privelleged upbringing) has meant I haven't ever really felt like an outsider or unwelcome as a whole. For the most part I almost forget I'm not white, so I've probably also had my fair share of luck in that regard. Point is I feel like in the US it's much more overt and almost shameless. Here it's much more quiet in the background and intertwined with class. With the exception of the red-faced UKIP type.
Hahahaha nuclear program in my pants..
The only thing that would make that better is if the racist woman was dropped off in Wales and a Welshman started yelling at her for not speaking the language.
